Chris Card
Web Developer,
Wellesley College
Wellesley College has released 34 web applications in one year that have improved the quality of life of faculty, staff, and students through timely and efficient data collection, manipulation, and display. With its custom PHP framework Wellesley has been able to rapidly deploy new applications, avoid costs associated with similar close-sourced applications, and transform Wellesley College from a paper-driven to a web-driven institution. During this session, we will discuss the implementation of Wellesley's PHP framework, with a focus on our highly successful "Student Checklist" application, and expound on the benefits of our custom application strategy.
